Lyrics
Description
[Verse 1]
My chest tightens before I even see you,
a shiver — that arrives before you do.
There’s a tremor in my chest every time you’re near,
like I’m walking through a room filled with things I fear.
I don’t know who I am when I’m around you anymore,
and I’m tired of hiding pieces scattered on the floor.
[Pre-Chorus]
You move like something fragile I can’t hold right,
and I keep folding in on myself every time you’re in sight.
I don’t know how to stay close without falling apart,
so I keep my distance just to stop the shaking in my heart.
[Chorus]
I’m trying to keep myself steady, steady when you’re near,
I lose my balance every time your name appears.
Each part of me reacts… in ways I never chose,
I’m fighting with the shadows you always wake,
and breathing near you feels like more than I can take.
[Pre-Refrain — whispered fragments]
It crawls — a coldness under skin.
I count my breaths to keep from cracking.
no—
hold—
break—
[Refrain — build and explode]
A heat behind my ribs that won’t be tamed,
metallic in my mouth, the words taste like blame.
Glass in my throat — I shove the syllables until they cut,
short clipped breath — then spill, then flood, then erupt.
It rips me open, iron in my mouth,
I push the words until they break out loud.
Rage, salt, and all the breaths I stole,
I let it burn so I won’t implode, I let it roll.
Clipped — then long: I pour the ache until it swallows the quiet,
I hold nothing back, I let the noise become a riot.
Doubt like tide, fear like flame — I can’t keep them inside,
I pour my soul into the sound until I’m hollowed and alive.
[Verse 2]
I try to reach you without shattering,
afraid of the weight my feelings carry and their way of changing me.
Your presence pulls the ground out from under me,
every time I breathe, I feel like I’m losing you again.
I try to quiet down the storm beneath my skin,
I don’t know how to let go without disappearing in the end.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I was never built for something ending like this,
maybe love was always something I could only miss.
I don’t know how to stay without tearing at the seams,
and I’m haunted by the versions of me you were never meant to see.
[Chorus]
I’m split between the ache for you and all you take from me,
every step toward you feels like choosing which part of me to bruise.
I want to stay, but I’m afraid of what I’ll become,
caught in a love that burns me… even when I run.
[Bridge]
I try to reach you without shattering,
afraid of the weight my feelings carry and their way of changing me.
And maybe in another life I’d learn to stay,
’cause I keep walking toward you even when I know I’ll break,
still hoping there’s a version of us I can survive.
[Outro]
But some loves don’t end — they just fade into the quiet we kept unnamed.
